A CO in Western Australia was having a relationship with a sister for some time...
Two separate instances in Bethel Australia where the "affairs" were going on for some time before the Hold Spirit woke up to it...
So it seems that if you progress with more "privileges of service", the HS overlooks things....

Jehovah's Witnesses act like 'Flirts' with people!
by stuckinarut2 inwe were just musing that jws act in a "flirtatious" manner with people in the community.. they show such "sincere" interest in people when they call.
they seem like such kind, caring and thoughtful people - really interested in their lives and welfare.. people are often quite impressed with the jws manner, and their well dressed presentation.
people (especially vulnerable ones who are going through difficult pressures in life), are drawn in and made to feel special by the witnesses as they call back.. return visits take place.

Thanks for your replies.
Yes, I am ashamed to say that we did the same with those we met in the territory. If they didnt "progress" we dumped them....
Now looking back though, I am happy, as that saved them from getting hitched to the cult....

"Jesus Russel Rutherford."
After all, JWs claim him as theirs alone!

Return visits take place. "Studies" may be started. The Witnesses may invite them to social gatherings with the congregation "friends". It all seems so amazing! ("someone likes me!" they may say.)
BUT, if the person doesn't reciprocate by "progressing" in their studies and becoming a Witness in the "appropriate time", they find themselves being treated differently. The keen interest and "friendship" lessens - the relationship cools....and eventually the Witness stops coming over or contacting them.
It is just like the conduct of a "flirt". When they don't get what they want, they abandon the person and move on.....
They simple become "somebody that I used to know"

Do you think the general public cares about former Jehovah's witnesses?
by Christian Gutierrez ini was wondering if you guys think if the general public cares about our stories or if they even care what the watchtower does to people??

As a born in, I thought everyone in the world knew about JWs, and that we were so important.
As I started my fade with the support of friends in the community, one thing kept being highlighted to me : "no one even thinks about or cares about JWs"
